INRAT LATEST EXAM QUESTIONS WITH 100%
CORRECT ANSWERS
Alternate minimums:
PA
NPA - ✔✔600' Ceig 2SM
800' Ceig 2SM
OBS of your VOR is set to 150* and needle is centred. The To/From meter is unserviceable.
How can you resolve the ambiguity? - ✔✔Rotate the OBS 10* to 160*
Needle moves left, AC is on the TO side
Needle moves right AC is on the FROM side of the station
Isolated CB's are? - ✔✔Individual Cells
ASI reads high during a climb a pitch increase results in a further increase in the ASI reading -
Why? - ✔✔Pitot tube and drain hole must both be iced over.
Acceleration of the AC during a missed approach could cause a pilot to do what? - ✔✔Lower the
nose of the AC which will degrade the required climb (Sensory illusion of pitching up due to
acceleration)
Exam gives you an approach plate depicts an NDB approach but it also provides a step-down fix
based on a DME (if you did not have DME, then this lower altitude would not apply). -
✔✔Question asks for what NAV equipment is required for this approach.
- An ADF is all that is required according to the procedure title-
[If you have DME then you have the advantage of the step down fix (and a lower MDA is then
authorized)]
,What is a black dashed line on a LO Chart? - ✔✔RNAV Route
Define Class B airspace. - ✔✔All Controlled Low Level airspace above 12,500 ASL or at and
above the MEA whichever is higher
Question on the minimum flight planning altitude pilots should use over the snow laden
mountains of Canada during the wintertime - ✔✔At least 1000' above the published MEA's
From whom do you obtain a SIGMET? - ✔✔Flight Service Specialist (FSS) 126.7MHz
Comm failure during a SID - ✔✔Read the SID chart Comm Failure Section
Question on T.O. minima when RVR is fluctuating. - ✔✔OK if Tower VIS is 1/2SM or Greater
When the term "Approximately" is used in a NOTAM - ✔✔It must be follower later by either a
[R]eplacing NOTAM or a [C]ancelling NOTAM
On a missed approach, if no further clearance has been received what should you do? - ✔✔Hold
at the missed approach fix if there is a published hold there OR if none published, hold (right
turns - standard) on the initial inbound heading that took you directly to the fix.
When must clearances and instructions issued by ATC be followed? - ✔✔Remember that
clearances and instructions that are issued by ATC are only valid while the AC is operating in
CONTROLLED airspace.
Once Clear of controlled airspace, you no longer have to maintain the last assigned altitude.
Does a heading amendment or altitude amendment to a SID cancel the SID? - ✔✔No
Black Hole Illusion - ✔✔would cause a pilot to fly a visual approach too low.
, When you receive a clnc prior to an IFR dep that includes a SID, What MUST be read back? -
✔✔Only the AC ident and the transponder code.
What are pilots required to do upon declaring a Minimum Fuel condition? - ✔✔During flight
when a pilot has declared a MIN FUEL COND, Pilot should advise each succeeding controller of
the existence of the MIN FUEL COND.
If the condition becomes an emergency, then the pilot should report the fuel remaining in
Minutes.
What will ATC do if you have a COM failure? - ✔✔Following a COM failure, ATC will keep
all other IFR traffic away from the destination airport for 30 minutes beyond your ETA
Rain on the windscreen during an approach to a runway - ✔✔pilot will thing the AC is higher
than actual. Low approach.
Exam points to the MEA of a particular airway and then proceeds to ask you what would the
MRA of that airway be? - ✔✔If no MRA is published,
MEA = MRA
You execute a missed approach at Victoria (your dest) and now divert to Nanaimo (YCD) (your
alternate, which during flight planning had 1000' 3SM minima); WX at YCD has deteriorated
and is now 800 and 2.5SM. Can you proceed for the approach? - ✔✔Yes, the flight plan
alternate minima no longer apply - Nanaimo is now your new destination. - Shoot the approach
down to the published landing limits on the CAP chart for the approach you intend to fly into
YCD
For and Overlay approach, do you have to monitor the underlying traditional NavAids? - ✔✔No,
but it is recommended as good practice if you can. By knowing the RAIM tolerances
RAIM Tolerances - ✔✔EnRTE (+/- 2NM)
Terminal (+/- 1NM)
